Who We Are
The Upper Moreland Historical Association is a non-profit organization founded by a group of citizens who are concerned that the community's significant and colorful history not be forgotten.
The Association is comprised of many committees, each of which focuses on one particular aspect of local history. Members are encouraged to join whichever committees align with their own historical interests.
Association Mission
The role of the Upper Moreland Historical Association in the community is the collection, preservation and stewardship of our history, folklore, and culture. Our mission includes the commitments to foster an appreciation for local history, to promote an interest in the area's past events, people and unique cultures, and to instill a sense of pride in the heritage of our community.
The Association is dedicated to making a difference in this area of our community in several ways:
- by maintaining comprehensive collections of historical information and artifacts
- by providing opportunities for local residents to assemble and discuss historical matters of mutual interest
- by educating residents through lectures, workshops, and field trips related to local history
- by assisting others in their personal pursuits of local history
- and by publishing and disseminating historical information on a periodic basis.
The Association welcomes and encourages the support and participation of all persons who have an interest in local history and who want to contribute historic materials or assist in the activities and events in quest of preserving the history of Upper Moreland.
